Conceivably, it must have not a few disadvantages for us to turn old; however, there are a lot of seniors out there telling us they are more satisfied with their senior lives, finding being a senior is a lot happier and more enjoyable than being a youth then.

When I rack my brain and attempt to figure out the reasons for their satisfaction with being a senior, I observed that this breed of senior is the kind of healthy and sociable one who long live their lives healthily and meaningfully. More wonderfully, when they are asked whether they will want to relive their youth again, you will hear that they don’t have such a desire, insisting that they are more satisfied with their senior lives at that moment.

On earth what causes them not to want to relive their youth when everyone covets being and pursuing youth? First and foremost, I find this breed of seniors healthy. So healthy that they are able to discern that growing old has not a few advantages that youth cannot have. They cite that when one grows old, one will grow wisdom leading one to be more capable of dealing with human relationships and solving problems; they will be more patient and peaceful able to live with ease. Most importantly, they know what is the most important and precious things in life. All these are we cannot know when we are young.

Finally, they indicate that there is only one reason to relive their youth, which is to rectify something that they decided or did wrong in their youth by employing the wisdom and experiences gained in these senior years they have lived.

In conclusion, it is only our misconception that growing old is bad or pathetic. The truth is that growing old has a lot of benefits that being young lacks. The reason we fear growing old and labeling it as bad is we are misled by the kind of fragile seniors who are long condemned to a bed or a wheelchair only being able to moan or sigh day and night, making us fear such a scenario our ultimate future. In fact, the reason for them being so is they have not lived a healthy or meaningful​life all along.

Therefore, if you want to have a senior life that is full of advantages, prompt to live your life healthily and meaningfully today.
